Since this product (Elite sc-68 receiver) does not carry a Pioneer US authorized warranty, are there independent warranties available for the product?

Yes, you can get one with Squaretrade which I think shows up when you purchase the receiver.

Yes, There is a warranty out there its call square trade this one is used bye the big box stores. Like Best Buy and also amazon. it's very good check the web site out and see what others think it cheaper to go with them then a retailer witch charge you more because they are the middle man they need a profit too.

The product comes with a warranty when purchased from authorized dealers. I'm not sure if you can purchase a warranty separately. You can call Pioneer customer service for more info. Visit their product website for contact information.

Remarkably, the Owners Manual does not state the Warranty. I suspect it's a 1-Year Warranty from Purchase Date. The Manual refers all other questions to Pioneer (USA) at (800) 421-1404. FWIW I bought 4 of these in 2012 and so far 3 have been given out as gifts and work great. I will hook mine up this weekend. I hope this helps!

I took the link from the pioneer site TO amazon, they call amazon an authorized internet seller so pioneer will cover the warranty.

You can use a hacked firmware from http://www.pioneerfaq.info/english/dv400.php?player=DV-400V&question=Firmwares -- it will possibly invalidate your warranty, but I'm watching a British DVD (R2) on mine at the moment with the hacked firmware.

Reference your question about a warranty; I examined my user manual very carefully and was unable to find any reference to a warranty. The only reference concerning repairs was in thetroubleshooting section for the DVD player in which the user was advised to perform the troubleshooting steps prior to contacting an authorized service center. I would ask Amazon forassistance in contacting the "Supersonic" technical representatives for further information in this regard.

I was under the impression this was obsolete; but if sold new Pioneer will honor the 1 year warranty; Go to schedule repair: http://parts.pioneerelectronics.com/repair/

Don't know if you are asking me or amazon, but if you read my review, there is an answer. I noted that I did not buy my sc 79 thru amazon. Pioeneer states they do not honor elite warranty thru online retailers, so that would be your answer

Well i am wondering the same thing too. They seem to have replacement models on the Japanese pioneer website, but who knows if we are getting em here in the US. Seeing as how your post was almost a year ago, i guess its a safe bet to say that we may not be.

I don't know. I just checked the owners manual and it does not say. You should go on Pioneer's Home Site and check. The unit works great.

Hi dave, if you haven't already, I would search on here and eBay for it. Between the two I rarely can't find something like that. If all else fails, I'm sure you could come up with something by emailing Pioneer. Good luck

Go to the pioneer.com website or try going to best buys and asking a sales person. Would be the best.

You will have to contact Trisonic - Queens, NY www.trisonic.com I have had one in service for about a year - no problems - may not need a warranty - the thing works better than any other off air signal amp I have tried.

Dash, is correct. You can still buy elite pioneer products and purchase the warranty through Square trade and still spend less than buying it through a B&M; Store.

I have no idea how a refurbished unit would be. Is it coming direct from Onkyo? Does it have a warranty? If so, I'd give it a shot. This is a really nice receiver. I love mine!

Manufacturers warranty is 12 months or 12,000 miles. Also need to replace receiver/drier or the warranty is voided.
